The wood has grayed
many years of weather,
fighting Winter, July boils,
and the rain"
Comfort on the old back-steps
twisted some, but sturdy.

Dark clouds move across
lighter shades,
or is it the world moving around
charcoal splashes.
Rain..doesn`t it seem searing at times.

I fought the day to bring me here,
the cold minutes spent alone...
no one to watch the rain"...Vincent

That it does.  Beautifully in tune to the most subtle moment; I love your style.

I wouldn't mind sitting on those twisted back steps for a little while.
Wonderful description.
